Israel Seminar Details

May 21–June 11: Participants will take an intensive three-week international seminar through JUC on the geography, history, and archeology of Israel, BCM291: Geographical and Historical Settings of the Bible.

ACADEMICS REQUIREMENTS

Assignments based on materials furnished by JUC will be completed prior to arrival in Israel. This work provides the necessary biblical background and regional introduction to study in Israel. Students will spend 15-20 hours on this work.

The Pre-Israel Assignments will be supplemented by two preparatory sessions on Gordon's campus at times to be scheduled during the final two weeks of the spring semester. These are separate sessions from the scheduled lectures for the Global Understanding course.

The content of lectures and field study in Israel will serve as the basis for five brief examinations and student journaling.
